When using IDLDE "built-in" commands are highlighted in dark blue
(procedures are darker than functions) whilst functions and procedures
written in IDL are in light blue (again, procedures are darker than
functions). This is with the default settings in IDLDE for windows.

DILATE comes up dark blue, leading me to believe it is written in C as part
of IDL and the source is unavailable. Looking in print,!dir+'\lib' I don't
see dilate.pro which seems to confirm IDLDE's behaviour.
